August 12, 201510 yr NYC Police Union Urges Officers To Take Pictures Of Quality-Of-Life OffendersSBA: There's Nothing 'Gotcha' About New Campaign Called 'Peek-A-Boo, We See You!'NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — The Sergeants Benevolent Association is launching its own initiative to combat quality-of-life issues.In a letter to its members, union president Ed Mullins urged officers while off duty to snap pictures of quality-of-life offenders to document what he says is “a city in decline.”“New York City has become a permissive place,” Mullins told CBS2’s Marcia Kramer on Monday. “We are an open invitation to come here because it’s okay to smoke marijuana; it’s okay to urinate in public; it’s okay to remain homeless in the street.”Quite simply, the union wants to document what it sees as the decline of the city that has led to the homeless clogging the streets and doing things like bathing in the fountain at Columbus Circle. Mullins blames Mayor Bill de Blasio and the City Council, which wants to decriminalize several quality-of-life offenses, Kramer reported.“I want them to stop with the phony policies that exist,” Mullins said. “What they are doing is they are jerking the public around.”Full story: http://newyork.cbslocal.com/2015/08/10/sba-police-union-quality-of-life/-- CBS New York 2015-08-12
August 12, 201510 yr Police and politics. Glad I left both after 18 years of being a political zombie while in the force.
August 12, 201510 yr ...............if you find yourself homeless.....you are a 'quality of life offender'.....??? .....and if you are homeless......where are you supposed to go for a pee,,,,,???
August 12, 201510 yr The U.S. has more restrooms, per capita, than anywhere else in the world. Try to find a restroom in Thailand or anywhere else in Asia, except Singapore.
August 12, 201510 yr What a moron, "quality of live offenders" what about their quality off live? Remember that these people choose to live in the street and no to have to work.
August 12, 201510 yr i guess now that the super rich are more rich than they ever have been it would mean the trickle down effect is not working. The people at the bottom (which is a rapidly growing number) are the ones getting pissed on. The super rich are the ones that are violating the possibility for others to have any quality of life.

August 12, 201510 yr they can come to thailand for a business trip of how to remove all those pesky beggars no fema camp available ?
August 12, 201510 yr ...............if you find yourself homeless.....you are a 'quality of life offender'.....??? .....and if you are homeless......where are you supposed to go for a pee,,,,,??? Same place they went before De Blasio became mayor.

The people at the bottom (which is a rapidly growing number) are the ones getting pissed on. The super rich are the ones that are violating the possibility for others to have any quality of life. The solution, which I have said before on TV- tax them till they bleed. Tax the ones that get rich by moving money around and do nothing for society at 99% on everything over the first 5 million or so.

Stay sober, work at everything that was available. They can do the same, as far as I am concerned. It has nothing to do with rich or poor. It has only to do with a desire to be responsible.

August 12, 201510 yr NYC cops hate deBlasio with a passion. They're trying to stiff him... watch for more to come.
August 12, 201510 yr The U.S. has more restrooms, per capita, than anywhere else in the world. Try to find a restroom in Thailand or anywhere else in Asia, except Singapore. More restrooms per capita would do you no good when you gotta go. In my experience, I've found plenty more access to restrooms (mostly in the many malls) in Hong Kong, Bangkok, Guangzhou, Taipei, than in NYC, for example. Trying to find one in U.S. cities is equivalent to a scavenger hunt, unless you begin knocking on private residences.
